Appears like not signing Fedor was a worse move than Dana thought.

Appears like not signing Fedor was a worse move than Dana thought. It looks that way.

I know I'm not anything to do with WP, but fuck; maybe you could just post something? Posting a link doesn’t contribute or generate anything; it's all about discussion/opinions in these parts.
Anyway
Yeah; Dana fucked up big time by not signing Fedor, and giving in to his weird shit Sambo Russian heritage demands or whatever. He's arguably the best heavyweight fighter ever, and could've done interesting things in the UFC (like, Could he have lived up to the hype), Considering Mirko and Rua (Fair enough Rua has only had one fight inside the octagon) are kinda making pride fighters look like a bunch of pussy's, I think it's more to do with the octagon (Rampage, and A.Silva didn’t exactly have amazing Pride records). Hopefully Wanderlai Silva's upcoming fight will prove Pride FC detractors wrong eh. Fedor fighting Couture on US soil couldn’t ment big $$$ business for the UFC and it seems Dana's fucked it by not giving in to the demands of Fedor. Also it's a shame that Couture's quit the company, But how many guys ever get to walk out on top? He pwned Sylvia, and Killed "up and comer" Gonzaga in what I'd probably put in 2 of my fights of the year. Although having spouted my shit I really wanted to see Couture defend against Nogueira, it could have been an amazing fight. It'll be interesting to see what happens with the vacant title, though I wouldn’t be surprised if Sylvia/Vera, and the upcoming Nog/Kongo turns in to a "tournament" of sorts. My moneys on Nog of course.
